Swimming and Breakouts

I'm training for a traithlon and have started swimming twice a week to start....my face broke out and hasn't cleared up, I'm wondering if it's the swimming or something else but my face has never broken out and this started when I began swimming. Is the Chlorine what's making my face breakout? What can I do for this?

Read this article.  Acne can be linked to Chlorine in the water!

I have always found chlorinated and salt water from the sea dry my face, therefore making it less oily and less prone to spots. It may be a different sport that is causing you to sweat and breakout? Always shower straight after sports and buy a good over the counter remedy like Freederm. If this doesn't help it may be coincidence that your acne has occured now. If so see your doctor to talk about prescription lotions or anti-biotics. I'm sure you don't, but never take steriods to enhance your performance these cause health problems including acne.
